Do The resistance of a material generally increases as its temperature increases?
The answer to this depends on the material from which the resistance is made. For most materials resistance increases with increasing temperature. This is referred to as having a "positive temperature coefficient". Some materials have a negative temperature coefficient; these do have uses in electronics.
Why does the resistance of a semiconducting material decrease when the temperature increases?
The no of electrons in the conduction band increases when the temperature of the semiconductor material increases. therefore resistance decreases. This is also know as "Negative temperature coefficient"
What is the relationship between resistance and temperature?
• ntc 'negative temperature coefficient': its resistance decreases as the temperature increases• ptc 'positive temperature coefficient': its resistance increases as the temperature increases
Why does the resistance of a thermistor decrease as the temperature rises?
Some materials have negative temperature coefficients of resistance, and some have positive temperature coefficients. Carbon is an example of a substance with a negative thermal coefficient of resistance, so it's resistance will decrease as it gets hotter.
If a carbon resistor increases in temperature its resistance will?
This depends on the type of conductor. If the conductor has a positive coefficient the resistance will increase. If the conductor has a negative temperature coefficient the resistance will decrease.
What is the difference between positive and negative temperature coefficient of resistance?
Negative temperature coefficient of resistance means that as the temperature of a piece of wire or a strip of semiconducting material increases, the electrical resistance of that material decreases.
How the resistance of conducting material vary with temperature?
Well, there's typically two types of materials-Those with positive temperature coefficient and those with negative temperature coefficient. Positive temperature coefficient are those whose resistance increases as temperature increases. Negative temperature cofficient are those whose resistance decrease when the temperature increase. There are however some alloys such as Manganin& Constantan whose resistance is not affected by temperature
What happens to its resistance when an electrical device is heated?
That will depend on the temperature coefficient of resistance of the device, which could be positive (i.e. resistance increases with increasing temperature), negative (i.e. resistance decreases with increasing temperature), or zero (i.e. resistance is unaffected by temperature changes).
How semiconductors behaves at absolute temperature?
As temperature increases the resistance of semiconductors decreases. This means that semiconductors have a negative temperature coefficient.
Why do the semiconductors have negative temperature coefficient whereas the metals have positive values?
Semiconductors: When temperature increases, more electrons jump to conduction band from valance bond. Hence resistance decreases. Metals: Already plenty of electrons are there in conduction band. When temperature increases, the electrons in conduction band of metal vibrate and collide each other during their journey. Hence the the resistance of metal increases with increase of temperature.

Does increasing the resistance increase the electric current?
If the current through a pure metallic conductor causes the temperature of that conductor to rise, then its resistance will increase. A practical example of this is an electric lamp. The cold resistance of a lamp is very much lower than the hot resistance.
Why TCR is negative for semiconductor and positive for metal?
Resistance decreases as more carriers are thermally generated with increased temperatures in a semiconductor. In metals there are plenty of carriers so the increase is negligible compared to the increased scattering off the lattice and impurities as temperature increases and therefore resistance increases with temperature.
